"Why do they find me attractive? I will never understand."
Since emigrating from Brazil in 1998 Emelio LaFeurre estimates he's had no fewer than 2,000 sexual partners, and frankly, he's had enough. "I've got the accent, the olive skin, I speak French, I'm tall and a professional soccer play. It's frustrating to go out in public.
"How many aerobics instructors, underwear models and back-up dancers can one man sleep with? It's like I'm a rich man when I go out in public and I'm swarmed by beggars, only they don't want my money, these are, how you say 'cock-beggars?' You know, like 'schlong time, now see'?
Since late 1999 Emelio has earned extra money by throwing parties inviting business men for a fee who attend to pick up sexual "scraps" left over by Emelio and his entourage. The woman are all top-notch and his fee of $50 per compliment is modest compared to the result.
"I went to one of those parties last year," explained David Bergstein, married six years. "It only took three compliments before this girl Amanda started thinking I was a real catch. Then when Emelio went off to his room with the four Dutch models, I was green-lighted to make my move. Man that girl knew some tricks."
Parties aside," Emelio told us. "I've had enough. Just last night I was at the gas station and this college cheerleader was trying to physically pull me in to the bathroom for a quicky and I was like 'No, please. Thank you but no, I've already got quite enough, thank you.' But they are relentless."
During the course of our interview at a small café in the heart of downtown, Emelio was slipped phone numbers by three men and eight women, some featuring written proposals, one with a pornographic lipstick doodle labeled "you & me" and one with an obscene limerick. I even got a note from the waitress instead of a bill reading "No charge, its on me, and so are you if you get me his number, I'm really good."
"You see what I mean?" he asked. "How much can I handle? What am I supposed to do with all this fantastic high-quality pussy?" But his story, though sad, is an inspiration for so many all over the world. I know for one that I am inspired, and for only $300 I am going to have him take me to lunch again.
